Chris Matthews bushwacks Ann Coulter by setting up a call from Elizabeth Edwards during his full hour with Coulter on Hardball last night.
Mrs. Edwards gets owned by Ann Coulter when it is brought up the sleezy tactics that Edwards (A Democrat candidate for President of the United States of America) has used in his profession as an Attorney that exploits doctors and children for his own enrichment.
Who did that?
I don’t know if you heard Lizzy call in... but damn... she sure sounded a lot like Hendie’s character, Margaret Gray. I was laughing my a$$ off!

This entire segment was a cheap and mean-spirited as anything the Dems have ever done. The fact that AC had a perfectly normal reaction to speaks volumes.

And yea, why does Matthews make all those ad hominem attacks on Coulter?
######
And her supporters! Yesterday he called the people standing behind her “from Deliverance.” Matthews has a serious prejudice against southerners, which slips out regularly on his shows.
He also cursed several times “jesus” and at the end of the show when Ann said something about his help in selling a lot of her books, he said “I will have to get to confession as fast as I can.”
The man is disgusting on so many levels. I wonder what his Viewership was for yesterday’s shows? About triple his usual numbers would be my guess.
Thanks for that. Ann is great!!! She should be in a Cabinet position, or, better yet, White House Press Secretary.
Chris’ cheapshot attempt to sabatoge Ann failed miserably! She didn’t flinch.
In the first place, it’s obvious Chris instigated the call, a real set-up. How else would Mrs. Edwards have been able to call in to a live TV show and get on the air?
I was disaappointed Ann ignored Chris’ nasty insult of the people there who were obviously Ann supporters. He said they were a “Deliverance” crowd. But maybe it was smart to ignore his nasty insults. A young woman in the crowd did just that when Chris said she a John Bircher. She ignored the jibe and said, “I’m from the Claire Booth Luce Policy Institute.
Chris is always a motor mouth, but Ann didn’t let him get the last word anytime he tried to trap her, or make her look meanspirited. And I bet this morning, Elizabeth Edwards is wishing she hadn’t taken the call from Hardball.
She sounded like a dry-drunk, seminar-caller...
Well Chris got to show Ann’s book.Ann got to say she added new material.Chris read from Ann’s book-which I thought was funny-and actual read the part of the rape of Juanita Broaddrick to explain why mean old Ann said Hillary has chubby legs.Ann won and Hillary ,welll she’s not going to be to happy with Chris.Did I hear him stammering.
I have to wonder just how many folks were next to E.E. coaching her and supporting her through this Jerry Springer ambush.
I would have loved to see Ann respond, when Matthews asked “Why did you have to comment on Monica Lewinsky’s chubby legs?” by saying, “Are you saying there was no liberal commentary that made fun of Linda Tripp’s appearance?”
You don't have to like it (I do), but that's the way it is and will be.
And by the way, welcome to Free Republic. It's a great place to be.
Ann rocks!
Ms. Edwards said John did not know she made the call? Anyone believe that? But she had to say it perhaps because she had an inkling she would come out looking stupid.
BTW...sure sounded like Breck Boy was hiding behind his wife's ( who has breast cancer) skirts...
